559e5d7f4d #2630: Implement PEP 3138.
The repr() of a string now contains printable Unicode characters unescaped.
The new ascii() builtin can be used to get a repr() with only ASCII characters in it.

PEP and patch were written by Atsuo Ishimoto.

f1ca0b11b5 Issue 1342: Python could not start if installed in a directory
with non-ascii characters.

This is the simple fix, which uses the FileSystemEncoding.
Replacing all the char* with unicode strings is a major rewrite,
and needs more thinking.

  Remove references to platform 'mac'

  The 'mac' platform (that is, os.name == 'mac') was used for the MacOS 9 port,
  which is no longer supported (as of Python 2.4 IIRC).

  MacOSX: remove dependency on Carbon package for urllib

  This patch removes the dependency on the Carbon package from urllib.
  The mac-specific code for getting proxy configuration is now writting in
  Python using ctypes and uses the SystemConfiguration framework instead of
  InternetConfig. Also provides a mac-specific implementation of proxy_bypass.

0740459248 #2798: PyArg_ParseTuple did not correctly handle the "s" code in case of unicode strings
with chars outside the 7bit ascii (s# was already correct).

This is necessary to allow python run from a non-ASCII directory,
and seems enough on some platforms, probably where the default PyUnicode encoding (utf-8)
is also the default filesystem encoding.

  Addresses issue 2802: 'n' formatting for integers.

  Adds 'n' as a format specifier for integers, to mirror the same
  specifier which is already available for floats.  'n' is the same as
  'd', but inserts the current locale-specific thousands grouping.

  I added this as a stringlib function, but it's only used by str type,
  not unicode.  This is because of an implementation detail in
  unicode.format(), which does its own str->unicode conversion.  But the
  unicode version will be needed in 3.0, and it may be needed by other
  code eventually in 2.6 (maybe decimal?), so I left it as a stringlib
  implementation.  As long as the unicode version isn't instantiated,
  there's no overhead for this.
